What a wonderful little event. I had a great and relaxing time and met some really nice people.

Here are a few pics that might make you laugh or at least scratch your heads.

Try this one......... A Mazdza Roadpacer! Any Idea what it is?

I saw a couple over the last 35 years but there were plenty who hadn't.

If it looks familiar it should................. The good old Holden Kingswood was sent over to Japan with no running gear. Mazda fitted a rotary engine, their own gearbox and diff and here it is.

Didn't sell well. Wonder why! :laugh:

Nice Pics Bob.

Was great to see so many great examples of Japanese cars out there today. I was in awe of both Bobs Aust R32 (so, so clean) and the Brembos on Matts V Spec II Nur!

Also loved seeing the variety of cars, especially some of the original Mazda Rotors, and that diminutive Toyota Sports 800.

Had a great day, but the sun bit me hard!

What a great day! Saw some cars that just made me drool. Bob your 32 GTR is immaculate, just an amazing looking machine. I left early to go and work on my car despite the beating sun, now it's ready to take for rego (I think), shame I couldn't have been one weekend earlier! Was so good, and some great Skylines, as well my mate's Legnum, was cool to see a few of them out in force as well, not to mention the RX-7 with a turbo the size of a house!

Thanks for posting those pics Pauly and Bob. Some nice shots there.

Great day, it was good to meet Chuey, Vlad, Jason, Chris (Bayside blue BNR34 with TE37 SLs), and Alex (PN-Mad) and a few other guys I hadn't met before. Awesome selection of cars.

Thanks to the organisers for a great event. :thumbsup:

      Cv boot replacement and rego inspection

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Not much. It's barely more than an hour's labour. So that-ish plus a boot, clamp strap, some grease.   But, being an R32 GTR, when it is up in the air and the driveshaft is out, about $9k worth of other problems will become visible.

      Is this saveable r32 gtr seat

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, as above. The welding is an easy enough job. Proper reupholstering, perhaps less so. These, and pretty much all seats of the same era (and probably still) rely on molded foam parts to make the shapes. That foam is the yellow detritus visible in the photos. And it is difficult to replicate. I didn't want the pain, so went aftermarket seats instead. But for "saving a classic".... it's probably worth the kidney and left nut that a trimmer will want to redo them.

      Way too accurate.... source: got flogged by an unsuspecting i30N last night... Super tidy looking 32 though, hopefully you find the time and funds to get it back on the road and enjoy it again!

      Source: This thread, and the thread this thread spawned from. Alternative take: Is heat actually an issue for the use case of this vehicle? I wonder if it actually would be. Nekminit

      Is this saveable r32 gtr seat

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Considering the price of GTR stuff now the answer is yes. That's a straight forward TIG or even MIG job. I'd put extra tubing inside, for extra strength and weld it up. Then use the spare seat as an example to get the bolster rails in the correct position and the re-apolster. If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for the pair as they are?
